Deux parodies parmi tant d’autres de “we are the world” de USA for Africa (1986), déjà détourné avec des marionnettes, des enfants et des animaux. Sauf que dans ces deux versions l’éspèce “en danger” est plus où moins la même (les riches vs les traders), bref les sujets, les clins d’oeil, l’humour et les références sont très proches et que les deux ont été faites en France…

Microsoft Bing | Search Overload Syndrome

Depois do fraco manifesto, que introduz o conceito de excesso de informação, a Microsoft divulgou dois comerciais para a sua ferramenta de buscas Bing. Dessa vez, um pouco mais criativos.

Criados pela JWT, os filmes abordam o que chamam de “Search Overload Syndrome”, com situações do cotidiano afetadas por pessoas que falam demais, sem objetividade. A intenção da Microsoft é mostrar que o seu sistema não apenas procura por informações, mas é também capaz de decidir o que realmente importa.

Procurei por “Google” no Bing (piada pronta) para ver se quebrava a Matrix, mas o máximo que aconteceu foi o primeiro resultado ser uma notícia contra os concorrentes da empresa de Redmond: “EUA investigam Google, Yahoo e Apple por violar concorrência”.
